Who Should I Start? KaVontae Turpin or Malik Washington

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver KaVontae Turpin (foot) returned to practice on Wednesday after missing the past two games with a foot sprain. Turpin has quietly been efficient this season, hauling in 11 of 13 targets for 159 yards and a touchdown. While he's not a focal point of the Dallas passing attack, his speed and versatility keep him involved enough to offer deep-league or bye-week appeal. With the Cowboys offense passing at a high volume, Turpin could provide sneaky flex value if he's cleared to play in Week 7. Fantasy managers should keep an eye on his practice participation throughout the week before considering him as a potential plug-in option.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Malik Washington had his busiest game of the season in Week 5 against the Panthers. He played about his normal amount of snaps but set a season-high with four catches on his five targets. He ended up with no yards on those four catches, but he did seem to get a little more work with Tyreek Hill (knee) unavailable for the first time this year. Washington has shown big-play ability in the return game, but he hasn't been able to get loose for any big receptions. He'll have a tough matchup this week against the Chargers, which is why he's only the WR57 in RotoBaller's rankings, but he does bring boom-or-bust potential if you need a deep league or DFS flier at receiver
